summary

A practical ten-year-plus retrospective that traces concrete shifts: the workflow moves from Eclipse AD plugin and slow emulators to Android Studio (preview 2013, stable 2014) with Gradle builds and AVDs; common libs named include Crashlytics, ButterKnife, Dagger, Retrofit and later AndroidX; architectures evolve from ALL‑IN‑ACTIVITY to MVC → MVP → MVVM (ViewModel + LiveData) and optional MVI plus repository pattern; Kotlin rises — Kotlin promoted at IO 2019 — and Eclipse finally reaches end-of-life in Nov 2016, while Compose now replaces XML UIs.
